John McConnell brings legitimate credentials to the table:
Real Tennessee permits come from State-approved online schools only. Out-of-state certificates from Virginia or Nevada do NOT qualify for Tennessee concealed carry. Beware of "fly by night" courses with suspiciously low prices - they won't be accepted by the State.
The Tennessee Concealed Carry Permit is recognized by 38 states, giving you legal carry reciprocity across most of the country.
You'll receive your Certificate of Completion immediately. Take it to any full-service Tennessee Driver License Station, pay the $68 State fee, and you're done. The permit arrives in your mailbox within weeks.
Tennessee allows open carry without a permit. However, if you want to carry concealed outside Tennessee or prefer the official permit for other reasons, this course gets you there. The permit also allows open carry on top of concealed carry.
